Employers who violate regulations on holidays and Tet will be punished.

Article 112 of the 2019 Labor Code stipulates that employees are entitled to 5 days off from work and receive full pay for the Lunar New Year and 1 day for the New Year.

Accordingly, Clause 2, Article 18 of Decree 12/2022/ND-CP stipulates the penalty for violations of regulations on working hours and rest time as follows:

Fines from VND 10,000,000 to VND 20,000,000 for employers who violate the provisions of the law on weekly holidays or annual holidays or holidays and Tet.

Note: The prescribed fine for the above-mentioned violations is the fine for individuals. The fine for an organization is twice the fine for an individual (Clause 1, Article 6 of Decree 12/2022/ND-CP).
